John S Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Obviously Linlithgow would have contacted Bo'ness in the first instance before putting out the notice looking for a game next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_Linux Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Seems a weird yin tbh. Was there much opposition to the club going 'senior'? Maybe the person(s) behind it are a bit 'mon the juniors' or am I reading the situation the wrong way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So an amateur team is changing their name and applying to join a junior league, which is apparently going senior next season. Makes complete sense if you're from Bo'ness.

Chance to develop home grown talent through the pathway. Be great to see Bo’ness lads involved in the senior team and the opportunity to watch football at Newtown every week. Who knows. Other clubs may follow and we can see local derbies more regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Heid Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 There's a story been doing the rounds for a few weeks that players at a local amateur side have been told that from next season they will be known as Bo'ness Juniors and be playing at the 3G Newtown Park in the East Region juniors. Linlithgow Amateurs? They were well linked with Bo'ness previously and could be a natural step for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt if they will be playing on any 3G park at Newtown next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So given the EOS and Juniors both play on a Saturday afternoon how’s that going to work? Alternate weekends at Newtown is never going to work given the track record of the Junior association and their inability to properly schedule fixtures.

I’m sure there would need to be agreement over fixture rescheduling by the Junior Association to accommodate the senior team who would have the priority? EoS have the season fixtures published. Maybe any home drawn cup games would require the Juniors to move to a Friday night / switch tie / Saturday evening ko? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope all clubs involved will have or working to an understanding so it runs smoothly as possible when new pitch down. Remember newtown will have floodlights in place so kick offs can be worked out for all but then again it’s Bo’ness and BU Committee are not best at talking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
